VANDANA

Fusing elements of disquieting electronica with alternative pop, Vandana's music embraces womanhood and otherness as if from inside the mouth of a cave. Her journey from India to London to Brooklyn has influenced her otherworldly and self-assured material, which arrives steeped in the knowledge of ancient Indian traditions and fables as well as in vehicles of abstract art and thought. Inspired by musical pioneers like Aphex Twin, Thom Yorke and Miles Davis as well as the vibrancy of Bollywood, the Gothicism of The Cure and of Fever Ray, Vandana also takes her cues from purveyors of subversion like Edgar Allan Poe, Lars Von Trier and Henry Miller. In her upcoming album Nox Anima, out April 21st, the singer, producer and visual artist brings her insular and mysterious writing process to life via slow-dripping, throbbing synths, creating an atmosphere that’s arcane, exotic and brooding. New record NOX ANIMA out now. VANDANA inhabits a nocturnal world, in which all creatures are moody and enigmatic.
